WE LOVE BUBBLES!

May 29, 2009

If you know me.  You know how much I love all my dogs!  Shawn, Toby, and James.  They’re like my little babies.  I constantly find myself bothering anyone and everyone around me all day long to pay attention to them.  With lots of kids coming and going at the house lately we’ve been playing with a lot of bubbles and the dogs love the bubbles just as much as the kids!

Taking photos of bubbles is a lot harder than I thought!  They move so fast and they pop even faster!  I love this bubble I captured!  The colors and reflection is pretty amazing!

This is a before and after of a bubble that James got too!

More than my dog, Toby is completely obsessed with bubbles!  He will sit in front of the bubbles and scratch the container and even cry for us to play with him!  Once we start we have to make sure we give him breaks otherwise he’ll just keep going and going and going!  Look at him in action!

Here’s a video of them in action!

ALBUM DESIGN

May 27, 2009

I’m a huge fan of simple album designs!  I love having all the negative space around the photos and keeping it uncluttered so the viewer can be drawn into the image.  I like to follow the motto less is more!  I have to admit I find it really hard to narrow down photos because there are always so many my clients want to use, but I always try to make the album flow and tell the story of the big day!

Here’s an example of an album design I recently made!  Press play to view all the pages!

Hi!  Welcome to my brand spankin’ new blog!  I’m super excited to be able to start a new journey here.  Don’t worry my old blog still exists so if you’re bored you can head over there to take a look.  [Old Blog]

For my first post I wanted to share a very special bridal session I did a few months back!  We decided to do a little bridal session since Esther’s beautiful dress was just hanging out all lonely in her room after her wedding.  Since her wedding photos were more urban, we decided to go the complete opposite way and head out to take some photos in nature.  I had such a huge blast and even got to play around with some off camera lighting.  This just proves you can never have TOO many photos of yourself in your wedding dress!

I hope you guys like my new blog, the new photos, and don’t be shy!  Say hi and tell me a lil about yourself!
